Metalloporphyrin Catalysts

Novel chiral systems for the catalytic asymmetric oxidation and cyclopropanation of olefins based on metalloporphyrins containing iron, ruthenium and manganese, have been recently introduced. High catalyst turnover numbers and sometimes high enantiomeric excess were observed. New catalytic reactions with metalloporphyrins have recently been reported; these are the olefination of aldehydes and cyclotrimerization of terminal alkynes. Dendrimers and polymers containing metalloporphyrins, have also been found to be efficient catalysts for oxidation and carbene transfer.

Inherently Chiral Calixarenes

N-acyl aminocalix[4]arenes were cyclized with nitriles to afford the expected quinazolines only in the case of para-substituted series. This strategy represents a new route to inherently chiral calixarenes potentially useful as fluorescent receptors.

Computational investigations on the bisphospholanoethane (BPE)-ligated Cu-catalyzed enantioselective addition of enynes to ketones were performed with the density functional theory (DFT) method. Two BPE-mesitylcopper (CuMes) catalysts, BPE-CuMes and (S,S)-Ph-BPE–CuMes, were employed to probe the reaction mechanism with the emphasis on stereoselectivity. The calculations on the BPE-CuMes system indicate that the active metallized enyne intermediate acts as the catalyst for the catalytic cycle. The catalytic cycle involves two steps: (1) ketone addition to the alkene moiety of the metallized enyne; and (2) metallization of the enyne followed by the release of product with the recovery of the active metallized enyne intermediate. The first step accounts for the distribution of the products, and therefore is the stereo-controlling step in chiral systems. In the chiral (S,S)-Ph-BPE–CuMes system, the steric hindrance is vital for the distribution of products and responsible for the stereoselectivity of this reaction. The steric hindrance between the phenyl ring of the two substrates and groups at the chiral centers in the ligand skeleton is identified as the original of the stereoselectivity for the titled reaction.

ABSTRACTNumerous studies [1-3] have shown that chiral biological structures share common properties with liquids crystals, in particular a tendency to assemble in three-dimensional lattices very similar to that of chiral nematics. Biological fibrous composites are usually found in planar (film) and cylindrical (fibber) twist geometries. In this work, the formation process of the planar twist architecture is numerically investigated using a mesoscopic model based on the Landau-de Gennes theory of chiral nematic liquid crystals. The simulations and visualizations of the computed textures provide new information on some of the principles that govern the formation of chiral biological structures. It is found that a defect-free planar twist architecture arises from a chiral front propagation process with a fully relaxed wake.
